I dont know if im reassured or concerned that Jaguar...who have developed a range of EVs themselves,....went to Rimac to design and build the key electrics for this. ( battery, motor, controls etc ?)
They certainly do not make that clear in their PR release info....

As you would probably expect, Jag pulled from its existing all-electric vehicle lineup to build the E-Type Zero, including the I-Pace, the automaker’s first all-electric SUV. Specs include a 220-kW powertrain juiced by a 40-kWh battery pack, with power routed through a new prop shaft, finally mating to an original E-Type differential in the rear before reaching the ground.

Personally, i would keep the E Type "oily", and have an EV Mk 2 as a daily driver......much more useable.
